Biography
Tony
Ranaudo is not just your ordinary Italian kid from
New Jersey. Sure he grew up in a traditional
Italian family, with loud uncles and cousins, and a
great-grandmother who when it came to food didn’t understand
the words “I’m full”. What makes Tony so interesting
is that his life story was closer to that of the “Ugly
Duckling”. He literally went from dork
to debonair, almost overnight. Tony, who couldn’t
get a date in High School to save his life, has recently
won the coveted title of Mr. Romance and is now gracing
the covers of Romance Novels as well as writing his
own monthly romance column “Dear Mr. Romance”, and
that’s not all. Tony’s appearance is somewhat
misleading, but this fantasy man has a knack for funny. Tony
is a Stand-up Comedian. How is that possible? Well,
just like the song says “He’s got personality!”
Since
winning the Mr. Romance title Tony has made several
public appearances including Comedy Clubs and Conventions.
He has started his own Romance column, and has become
a Recurring Guest Host on “The Other Half” with Dick
Clark and Danny Bonaduce. After Tony’s
first appearance on the show they brought him back
immediately for an encore.
Now
this all didn’t happen overnight. Tony has been
dedicated to his Comedy and Acting career since the
beginning. Which happened to start with a commercial
campaign for the Colorado Lottery, Tony portrayed an
Elvis impersonator. Since that day Tony has appeared
in more commercials, had Guest starring and Co-starring
roles on several TV shows, lead roles in several independent
films, and Tony has also Starred in his own Sit-Com
Pilot "Life's A Stage".
Tony has
opened for George Lopez & Judy Tenuta, as well
as touring the country on the Def Comedy circuit as
an opener for Sheryl Underwood. Also he recently
produced his own One-Man Comedy show at The Del Close
theatre in Hollywood called, “The Art of the Tease”.
Tony Ranaudo
is the exception to the Rule. He is a unique individual
with a real zest for life. Tony continues to work at
and polish his craft called "Comedy". He
has one goal in mind, and that is to be a well-rounded
and versatile entertainer.
